The second pair will just sit and watch the scenario and then debrief the first pair focusing on the realism and reality of the simulation and how that relates to the skills showcased.

Scenario
Mid-sized InnovateCo technology company realized the necessity of changing performance management system’s efficiency and enrolling the employees’ attention. It was upon the HR team to devise methods and ways of supervising the employees’ performance and how to provide feedback to them in good time. interactive training approaches incorporating training scenarios that enable the employees to rehearse on design of performance indicators In line with Clark & Mayer (2016).
Challenge
InnovateCo faced several issues:
Lack of clarity on performance expectations was identified as an issue as it was obvious from the results, which were all over the place much of the time.
Co-feedback was not often or usually provided only when annual appraisals were conducted, and as such, any changes that could have been made were only made after a full year.
It soon became evident that many managers could not clearly know the specific measures of performance that can effectively promote team objectives and objectives within the organization.
